What is the average sparky factoring in for a new circuit under the 17th edition, say its an addition to an existing rewirable old fuseboard, I assume a henley block and short tails to a new RCBO module is required.

What would an electrician now charge for a new shower circuit including materials, say 10m cable run under floor boards excluding the purchase of a shower.

Whilst were on the subject of prices what do you all think a self employed time served fully qualified (17th ed 2391 etc) part p sparks (me) should be charging an hour in the nottingham area. because i was told recently by a builder that 8 hours (1 day) @ £160 was expensive?

I dont think theres anything wrong at all with that price, Im in leicester and some of the blokes on the firm i were at would book down £200 for there day rate.

As said many many times electricians dont get payed enough for the work they do.. but then agian ive known some blokes charge £80 for a days labour just to get the job.
 
my dad gives me £100 a day,you gotta be looking £135 +,lad plasterer i know his labour only is £125 i think and no offence to plasterers but all hes gotta do is bung some muck up on a wall!!! sorry if some take offence but as long as it looks ok its ok.....no design,warranty,planning,certificates etc......to be honest id be looking once get part poo £150 but works quiet so you gotta be making somthing, just dont sell yourself short!
